Free Second Unit Designs & Building Plans

The City of Fort Bragg is pleased to announce our Free Second Unit Design program to make it easier for residents to build new second units (also known as granny or in-law units) in city limits. The City commissioned architects, design professionals, and engineers to prepare 3 second unit designs with a range of sizes and features. A second unit is a house of less than 960 square feet on a lot that already has a home. View the flyer (PDF),

Design Review

These three designs are available for review by clicking on the links in the sidebar at right. You can also look at full size plans at the Community Development Department in City Hall, 416 North Franklin Street. Stop by to see the plans and ask staff about fees, setbacks, parking, lot coverage, and other regulations specific to your property. You do not have to pay for having the designs drawn, but copies of the plans cost $3 per page for 24 by 36 inches black and white plans, or $5 per page for 24 by 36 inches color plans. We can also copy the plans to your flash drive at no charge. All City fees for planning, building, or other permits still apply.
